What does this mean for YOUR chart?
Ask the Cosmic Advisor →What this phase is good for
A waxing Moon (New toward Full) is the building half of the cycle — the traditional window for starting, planting, and gathering momentum. A waning Moon (Full toward New) is the releasing half — for finishing, clearing, and letting go.
You are currently in a waxing New Moon in Sagittarius, which colours the mood of the moment with that sign's themes.
Why the sign of the Moon matters
The Moon changes sign every two to two-and-a-half days, so its flavour shifts faster than any other body. The sign it is in right now — Sagittarius — is the emotional weather everyone shares today.
What actually moves your life is how that transiting Moon touches your own chart. A Full Moon landing on your Sun feels very different from one that ignores it.
